Really? Linkin Park?

Is this what Sup Forums has come to?

My favorite band when i was 15.

Jesus Christ, what was i thinking

>guilty pleasure
Honestly, I don't quite understand why anyone would ever admit to having a "guilty pleasure" when it comes to music.
When someone calls something a "guilty pleasure," they're saying much more than just "I like it but it's bad". In reality, they are putting themselves into one of two camps; neither of which are desirable to be in.

>1. The "ironic rockist" - this camp purports to be appreciating music on an intellectual or "deep" level, but shows enjoyment for something does doesn't live up to their poorly contrived notions of artistic evauluation.
>in order to justify this behavior and quell their cognitive dissonance, the rockist will choose to label the piece a "guilty pleasure" and avoid amending their evaluation process to better reflect their actual tastes.

>2. The "real" [insert genre] fan- this camp purports to be appreciating music on a "genuine" or "personal" level, but will prove otherwise through their actions. Much like the ironic rockist, they will achieve a state of cognitive dissonance when they find that they enjoy something not fitting in with the image they desire to project. They settle the dissonance through the justification of it being a "guilty pleasure" while assessing "well everyone has some."
>Oftentimes called such things as "hipsters" or "poseurs," these people are frequently concerned more with the image they gain in the eyes of others rather than the pleasure they derive from the music itself- that is to say, their enjoyment of the art stems almost purely from something outside themself, the art itself, and their sphere of control.

Muse was your favorite band last year?

Subscribing to guilty pleasures kills any chance of thought about the medium one is consuming because they're agreeing to pre-made ideas which are not rooted in the self. While a mature music listener will decide what they think about music from within, the rockist is falling to pre-made conceptions which say that something is intrinsically better without actually making any kind of assessment themselves. As such, doing so makes a person an empty vessel for the perceived ideas and opinions of others instead of a source of fresh and stimulating genuine viewpoints.
If someone has opinions that are not their own, why should you respect them over the true source of their opinions? Musically immature behaviors such as those stated above are not accepted by the mature members of Sup Forums, and never will be.

TL;DR - If you have guilty pleasures, you are a plebeian who should go back to where this behavior is acceptable- namely Reddit.

i take the term as 'i thoroughly enjoy, but most people would or do not enjoy it' i dont feel guilty about loving ETID

I'm 22.

>i dont feel guilty about loving ETID
well you should

He's cute as fuck tho.

Pouya is good though. SuicideBoys are the best cloud rap group.

If you're a 14 yr old girl

:^/

pouya is ok, $$ are god-tier

why should i?

I don't know about "guilty", but I love this song more than I feel is acceptable:

or, you know.. you can not be autistic about it

hahahaha look at these fucking nerds

because it's objectively bad music for middle schoolers (ie people with objectively bad taste)

>resorting to using Sup Forums's favorite buzzword to bash me while not addressing any of the points in my comment
biggest sign of a pleb desu

god why

you better start believing in summer threads

you're in one

...

this is an actually good album don't feel guilty about it

if some faggot tries to make you feel bad about liking foster the people, cut them off immediately. they are not your friend

oh fuck off. This isn't a "guilty pleasure" because it was somewhat popular, it's neigh identical to a million and one nondescript white 20 something bands that Sup Forums likes

my fav tshirt

...

...

The Front Bottoms.

desu they we're bretty gud 15 years ago

i mean, i'd have sex with her.

Hollywood undead makes me depressed because I think they're a band that genuinely puts time and effort into what they do because it appeals to them personally

Songs like Bitches and Everywhere I Go are legitimately good rambunctious party songs

Unfortunately I think just by association their music has the gross vibe of being associated with dumb egotistical fratboy white guys in fox racing tees. Basically Los Angeles the band.

I dunno senpai makes you wonder what bands nowadays are gonna age horribly and just embarrass people that they ever existed... I'm leaning towards people like Drake that have massive egos despite not doing or accomplishing anything interesting

>frat boys
>fox racing tees
you're going to have to pick one. they're both terrible though and probably listen to hollywood undead.

fratboys wouldn't be caught dead in fox racing tees unless they're all white trash

I enjoy some 21 pilots, they are catchy as hell and good Top 40 music. Their lyrics are pure cringe but i don't usually give a fuck about lyrics.

...

Imo Drake will go down in history similarily to an artist such as 50 cent. Not groundbreaking or particularily innovative, but a culmination of what sounds were popular at the time while still being undeniably important

DISRESPECT YOUR SURROUNDINGS!!!

How can you feel guilty about liking the best band in the universe?

One of Bowie's best albums and one of my favorite albums of all time

i secretly love korn's first 4 albums and slipknot's s/t and iowa.

The bait is strong with this one

her

what's wrong with korn's s/t at an artistic level?

Prove it by posting a clear pic of your driver's license.

actually, not much and i think jonathan davis was actually a fantastic vocalist.

i say secretly because korn fans are associated with a bunch of things i don't really like

i'm curious when did you actually listen to them, i've noticed korn's first album has been looked at a lot better recently.

Marina overall or just Electra?

marina in general, for some reason I just love all if her music. I don't even generally like pop music. I really like her voice so that might be it. :/

Top tier drunk nostalgia tunes.

>gay for eachother probably
if only

gr8 b8 8/8

linkin park Jay Z collision course is a top tier album

...

I feel you

I mostly like it because I was huge on this band when I was younger

Or a twink chaser ;)

what's wrong with twenty one pilots??

no guilt needed, theyre great, just not as good as 12 yr old tumblrites think

I would say the album isn't half bad, victorious is a guilty pleasure however.

Nothing, they just don't mesh with the majority of people's tastes on this board.

bryson tiller :-[

cant believe i like him

They're trash

I like him too...
His lyrics are not the best out there, but his beats and the overall production of his songs are very good. Don't think he will ever do something as good as Trapsouls.

i agree

even somebody that doesn't like his songs can agree that the production is top notch

I don't really give a fuck about what other people say, but his last album was good.
My "guilty pleasure" is Justin Bieber!!

If you can get past the lyrics, band's image, shitty fanbase and Jimmy's obnoxious personality, they're actually great.

The song Good Dope Days saved my life

So subtle

This is album is really good how it's a guilty pleaure.

I like that one reggae like song they have that plays on the radio

Kiss is pretty underrated. People like to say they were shitty musicians, when in reality they're no better or worse skill wise than 95% or other bands out there. I don't go out of my way to listen to them anymore, but every time a song of theirs comes on incidentally I enjoy it. They're big, they're loud, and they're stupid, but they're also self aware and know their strengths. Live videos of Paul Stanley in his prime show him to be an amazing performer, doing high kicks and jumps in high heeled boots of all things. I've thought about it and I think if I could go to a show for any band living or dead, prime Kiss would be up there.

That's like 90% of their songs

Oh look, it's Twenty One Pilots poster again.

Are you female?

TOP is literally a boyband disguised as a rap group, made for teenage girls.

This band.
I can't help it.

I remember saying on a pro wrestling forum when I was 13 that these guys sucked and basically the entire forum just started going berserk on my ass saying I didn't know shit about music.
